Shun had been testing and controlling his newfound power in the lush green forest for about half an hour when he noticed something: he was incredibly powerful!
Boom!
He'd thrown a very light punch, using almost no force, but the punch had created a shockwave that slowly expanded, obliterating the trees and grass in front of him with a massive explosion!
"Hmm!"
Shun was now staring in astonishment at his punch and the wide expanse of space the shockwave had created ahead.
He'd actually noticed this half an hour ago. At first, he'd just tried to push forward by applying a little force to his leg to see how fast he was going, but the place where he'd applied force had cracked with a loud bang, creating a deep fissure, and he was still flying several kilometers ahead...
He was flying so fast that sometimes he lost track of where he was, but this didn't last long, and he crashed into a small mountain, almost destroying it.
Despite hitting the mountain at high speed, his body was almost completely undamaged, though Shun hadn't noticed because he was still thinking about his previous speed.
After a brief pause, he muttered to himself,
"My father said that when I defeated him, I could do whatever I wanted with that power, and he knew I would pass on here... if he knew I would gain power this way upon passing on, and he said that for my current state, then there's no problem. But if he said that for my power before I came to this world... that's a bit much, isn't it?"
To tell the truth, there was a world of difference between his state before and after coming to this world.
If we imagine his current state as a dragon, his state before coming to this world was just an ant! This power was utterly ridiculous!
After thinking in astonishment for a while longer, Shun regained his composure and easily pulled himself out of the mountain where he was still buried. It didn't matter how much power he had gained; if he couldn't control this power now, he would only cause trouble!
The power he had just directed to his leg was so small it was indescribable, yet it had created such an effect! Power wasn't the only thing he had gained from his training with his father. The real reason he could defeat his father was his mastery of controlling his power!
Even though half an hour had passed, he still couldn't fully control his power, because it was at an unbelievable level! So far, he had only used a very small amount of it, and even that was enough to cause absurd explosions in the areas around him! He couldn't help but wonder what would happen if he threw a full-power punch, but he didn't have the courage to do it.
Of course, the reason he was afraid was whether the effect of a full-power punch would harm him. In fact, thanks to his resilience, even if millions of tons hit him, nothing would happen, but of course, Shun didn't know that yet.
After spending some more time refining his control, he finally succeeded! At least he could run normally without destroying anything.
Actually, he wanted to stay here a bit longer to gain complete control over his power, especially his energy! He had tried to use his energy a few times in the short time that had passed, but each time the dimensions warped drastically, and he hadn't dared to release it again out of fear. Of course, he could control his energy soon, but he was excited! He was in another world now, how could he not be excited? Thinking this, he spoke,
"My work here is done. If you continue to follow me, that's fine, but if you want to talk about anything, it would be best if you left now."
There was nothing around. No sound, nothing else. Shun looked like a madman talking to himself. But soon, a few figures had suddenly appeared on the branches of the extremely large and tall trees around him!
Shun looked at them and laughed, and couldn't help but shout inwardly, 'Elves!' That's right! These figures, with their long ears and beautiful faces, were elves!
From the moment he transitioned into this world, there were things he wanted to see. And at the top of the list were elves! The indispensable element of every fantasy world, the children and protectors of nature!
"Will you come down?"
Shun asked, suppressing his excitement. Even though the elves had revealed themselves, they were still watching him from above, which annoyed him somewhat. He felt as if he were being judged.
After hearing Shun, the elves who had revealed themselves hesitated for a moment, but then decided to descend. They jumped down one by one; there were exactly 18 of them.
Shun began to examine them. Probably 14 of the 18 were men. Because the other 4 had large breasts! He said "probably" because each of them had a beautiful face, regardless of gender. Perhaps there were some flat-chested girls among the 14. With all their faces so beautiful, I wondered if there would be any relationships among the men? Anyway.
"I'm Shun, may I ask why you've been watching me for so long?"
Shun had actually noticed their presence the moment he woke up, but he wanted to quickly get away without revealing his awareness, avoiding trouble. However, upon realizing his newly acquired power, he decided he didn't need to fear them and stayed, even occasionally showing off his strength.
The elves on the other side were clearly shocked by these words. One of them, with a slightly longer face, whom Shun assumed was male, stepped forward. Although his face was slightly longer, it made him a little more handsome! What a strange race.
"Mr. Shun, we are from the Fresta Kingdom. I am Esna Shon from the royal army! Our king wishes to see you, would you like to come with us?"
She spoke in a gentle tone, as if afraid of upsetting Shun.
"Hehe, there's no need to be so nervous. My clothes were recently ruined, so I was going somewhere to find some new ones. Since you asked, I guess I can come with you."
Her clothes had almost completely fallen apart when she crashed into a mountain, and her bag and everything inside had been torn to shreds. So, it was perfectly understandable that she wanted to go to a city or somewhere else to find new clothes.
Esna felt a little more relieved after hearing these words, then smiled and took a few clothes from the bag behind her and handed them to Shun.
"Consider this a small token of thanks for coming with us."
"Ooh! Thank you!"
Shun happily took the clothes and, going behind a tree, first took off his tattered clothes and put on the new ones. The clothes were green and a little baggy, unlike anything from his old world, but they felt comfortable, so it wasn't a problem.
He emerged from behind the tree and slowly began walking towards the elves. With each step, the elves' faces paled. Because with every step Shun took towards them, they felt as if thousands of tons of mountains were pressing down on them! Shun wasn't aware of what was happening as he walked towards them, and he had a normal smile on his face, but that smile was now like the smile of a demonic god to the elves!
Esna finally couldn't bear it any longer and spoke in a trembling voice,
"M-master Shun! P-please, can you suppress your energy? H-we, weak beings, cannot withstand your energy!"
Shun finally realized what was happening and slowly began to control the energy overflowing from him. He felt more comfortable in the clothes he had just changed into, so he let go of control. If Esna had been a little later, they would probably have been completely torn to pieces by the energy emanating from Shun!
With an apologetic expression, Shun said,
"I'm sorry. In a moment of relaxation, I accidentally lost control."
Esna slowly calmed her trembling body and, with a voice that clearly held a hint of fear, smiled and said,
"It's alright. Shall we go?"
"Mm." After Shun nodded, Esna and the other elves began to walk slowly, and Shun
followed behind them.
